Chapter 720 The Destruction Bead

In the spiritual world, Yan Sheng attacked Li An like a madman.Countless sword lights, like fallen plum blossoms blown by the autumn wind, densely packed, blotting out the sky.He clearly saw Li An's vital signs declining.At this level of cultivation, defeating an enemy with a single blow was practically a dream, unless one's cultivation level was far superior, but Yan Sheng clearly lacked that.This mortal man before him didn't even possess a Dao Soul, and was only at the tenth level of the Heavenly Realm, yet his heaven-defying talent granted him an unacceptable power multiplier. His infinitely powerful physique meant his defense and endurance far surpassed his own.He was like an invincible, all-around warrior; to kill him, the only way was through attrition, relentlessly whittling down his health.Under the onslaught of sword lights, the light emanating from Li An's spiritual body noticeably dimmed compared to the beginning, indicating that his attacks were effective.He had inflicted effective damage on Li An! "Lend me a little more light!" Yan Sheng looked at his beloved younger brother and sister, who unhesitatingly unleashed their power upon their brother.At this moment, both Yan Zunyu and Yan Ruxian's expressions grew increasingly solemn.This shouldn't be happening.In their expectations, Li An shouldn't be this difficult to kill.His super-discharge technique has been activated.The three gods and three beams of light merged into one.His realm is also higher than theirs; he even has to hold up the Demon Realm with one hand.Why isn't the speed at which his spiritual strength is decreasing as fast as they imagined?What terrified the three most was Li An's gaze.He stood amidst the flames of war, his eyes indifferent, offering no defense from beginning to end.He offered no defense whatsoever, allowing Yan Sheng to attack.His mountain-like aura grew ever stronger, bringing an indescribable sense of oppression to the three young gods.We are clearly attacking, he is being attacked, yet in terms of sheer power, we are becoming increasingly weaker.Time passed second by second.The spectators in the Celestial Realm were somewhat astonished.The three Yan siblings had relentlessly entered Li An's mental world. Now, from the outside, Li An's face was growing increasingly pale, indicating that the Yan brothers' attack had been effective.Li An was not invincible.He could be injured, he could bleed, and he could die!But now, a full ten hours had passed.A crucial question arose.How much longer could Yan Sheng hold out?How much longer could his Boundary Light Sword last?A super-powerful technique used at its maximum limit for over ten hours—the consumption on the caster was astronomical.This meant that Li An's defensive capabilities were also far beyond what mortals could imagine.The final scene of Che Wang's battle against Li An was still vivid in their minds.That seemingly invincible, unscathed divine power of heaven, when facing the Limitless Realm Li An, was as weak as cotton. A punch to Li An's face fractured his hand, yet Li An's skin didn't even twitch.Suddenly.Everyone then thought of something even more outrageous.Li An's physical cultivation wasn't primarily focused on defense, but on self-healing.Because of the unification of the three realms, this self-healing effect would also radiate to his spiritual and elemental bodies.Has Li An begun self-healing?There doesn't seem to be any similar power fluctuation.In the Ming Clan's Royal Palace, Cang Fu watched the battle unfold before him expressionlessly, having already reached a conclusion."Li An, who is about to completely condense his Heavenly Dao Soul, is already an existence that cannot be understood by common sense.""Yan Sheng and the other two will have a hard time winning."In the Yan Clan's Royal Palace.Yan Boyue sighed inwardly.He had personally witnessed the process of killing the old Heavenly Dao, and now Li An was showing signs of being invincible.Thirteen kings, plus the Holy Spirit, used countless amounts of luck, royal martial arts, and even scheming and ambushes, yet it took them hundreds of thousands of years to wither the World Tree, and they were almost killed several times along the way.In the mortal realm, it's impossible to kill Li An without sending someone at least at the thirteenth level.And this is still the present. If a few more years pass, perhaps only the emperor's personal presence would offer a chance.Therefore, in Yan Boyue's plan, to kill Li An, they must wait for him to ascend to the Heavenly Realm.As long as he remains in the mortal realm, everyone's cultivation level will be suppressed, forever unable to fight against a Heavenly Dao that cannot be suppressed by rules."Hmm?"Suddenly, Yan Boyue's eyes changed slightly.He stared intently at Li An, sensing something strange was happening.In the mortal realm, everyone heard a "creak," a strange cracking sound, and the scene of destruction on the Demon Realm continent suddenly reappeared, only to cease a few seconds later.All of this seemed to signify one thing."How is this possible!?" The Ghost Lord looked up in disbelief: "Li An's Heavenly Dao Soul shattered!?""What!?" Zhao Yanbian, standing nearby, broke out in a cold sweat.Only then did everyone realize how much Li An meant to them; he was like the heavens themselves.The shattering of his Heavenly Dao Soul was tantamount to the collapse of the sky.The Lightbringer's eyes widened in disbelief: "It doesn't make sense! How could those three people have driven Li An to this point?!" All the powerful figures in the mortal realm looked up, their eyes filled with panic.What exactly happened in Li An's mental world?A dozen minutes ago.Li An's mental world.Yan Sheng was exhausted, his spiritual body trembling violently, his pupils filled with terror, even despair.Suddenly, he charged towards Li An like a madman, a bead appearing in his palm.A second-tier, one-time use Heavenly Martial Artifact, the Destruction Bead, indifferent to friend or foe; once it explodes, everyone will die."No!" Yan Zunyu and Yan Ruxian trembled as they reached out, but their power had already been given to their brother, unable to stop him.Ahead.The energy within the Destruction Bead began to bloom, wisps of various colors of alluring power emanating from the bead, like a sprouting seed of a ghostly flower.Li An's gaze fell upon the bead, a hint of curiosity in his eyes.Then, he suddenly glanced at Yan Zunyu and Yan Ruxian, and with a wave of his hand, he threw their spiritual forms out of this world.The crazed Yan Sheng raised the Destruction Bead high, aiming it at Li An's face, his expression twisted in a ferocious grimace. Blood even trickled from his god-like face, making him look terrifying, like a mad paladin.Just as the bead was about to strike Li An's face,a wisp of Heavenly Dao power appeared in Li An's palm, like a glove encompassing his hand, and he gently grasped the bead. Then, he slapped Yan Sheng on the shoulder."Bang!" Yan Sheng was sent flying.The bead landed in Li An's palm.Yan Sheng let out an excited cry, saying, "You dare to hold the Destruction Bead!""It's going to explode, you can't stop it!"At that moment, countless beautiful images flashed through Yan Sheng's mind.But these beautiful images shattered in the next second.A "crack" was heard.A crack appeared in the Destruction Bead. Li An looked down at the white bead in his palm, now devoid of all energy fluctuations, and murmured to himself, "Quite complex." All power fluctuations vanished in that instant.Yan Sheng's heart seemed to stop beating as well, his eyes blankly fixed on the white-robed supreme being before him.Deconstructed?Two seconds, or three seconds?Like defusing a bomb, Li An dismantled all the explosive structures within the Destruction Bead in those brief one or two seconds, ultimately reducing it to a powerless marble, which Li An flicked with his finger."Bang." The bead struck Yan Sheng's forehead, sending him reeling.
